'''Wuqiang New Year Pictures''' originated in the early 15th century. They had long been produced in large quantities in [[Wuqiang]], [[Hebei]], which enjoyed the reputation of being the "Hometown of Chinese New Year Pictures."

The engraving skills for plate making mainly depended on relief carving, supplemented by intaglio carving. The whole work would appear dynamic, bold and well spaced. With well-organized composition, clear themes and clear-cut images, Wuqiang New Year Pictures were quite appropriate for decoration, full of strong rural flavor. The subject matter involved stories and local operas, as well as everyday life, cute babies and beauties, mountains and rivers, birds and flowers, etc.
